MANAGEMENT COMMENTS
“The second quarter 2018 was a challenging operational quarter at Comanche, as we continued to see higher than
projected production declines from wells brought on-line during the second half of 2017 and early 2018,” said Tony Sanchez, III,
Chief Executive Officer of Sanchez Energy. “As discussed last quarter, the key issues leading to these decline rates include: (1)
poor Upper Eagle Ford well performance in several of the delineation and step-out areas, (2) the testing of a more aggressive
flowback strategy that resulted in well decline rates in excess of legacy well production profiles, (3) the use of hybrid
completion designs, and (4) tighter spacing of the drilled-but-uncompleted wells acquired with the Comanche acquisition.
“A proactive effort to stabilize and improve production performance is already underway, including shifting back
to a more conservative choke flowback plan which began at the start of the second quarter. The positive production results
from the latest wells on restrictive chokes gives us confidence that we will return to organically growing production in the coming
months.
“Additionally, we have implemented an optimization strategy to adjust completion designs based on well spacing
and geological characteristics in specific areas at Comanche. The asset, which encompasses a large and complex acreage
position, consists of approximately 318,000 gross acres and spans both the volatile oil and the gas condensate windows of the Eagle
Ford shale trend. With a year of operating experience at Comanche, Sanchez Energy is significantly better positioned to
tailor completion methods and designs optimally to the different areas of the asset.
“Similar to our enhanced performance at Catarina over the last 12 months, where after encountering production
issues in the first half of 2017 we took corrective actions and have since grown production by over 23 percent, we are confident
that our work to improve the performance of Comanche is on the right course.
“We will not stop at these corrective actions in our drive to gain operational efficiencies and to enhance
production and margin capture. Accordingly, management and our board of directors have engaged a leading global consulting
firm to assist with a comprehensive review of the Company’s performance across all aspects of the business, with a specific focus
on operational and technical strategies. The goal of this review is to further enhance production and operating margins in order to
achieve the financial performance Sanchez Energy’s shareholders expect. We believe this effort, combined with the proactive
initiatives already underway, will lead to improved operational, production, and financial performance that will ultimately deliver
enhanced shareholder returns.”
OPERATIONS UPDATE
During the second quarter 2018, the Company drilled 57 gross (33 net) wells and completed 41 gross (28 net)
wells. The Company brought 49 gross wells on-line, 27 at Comanche and 22 at Catarina, during the quarter.
The Company drilled ten horizontal wells in the Briscoe Metcalf area of Comanche at the end of the first quarter
2018 in a “quad stacked” pattern that targeted both the Lower and Upper Eagle Ford shale using a new generation high volume, high
rate slickwater completion design. The wells have continued to outperform the Company’s type curve forecast for this area
with average 30-day and 90-day production rates of approximately 1,368 Boe/d and 1,135 Boe/d, respectively. The wells
have materially outperformed adjacent wells, producing approximately 60 percent more over the same time period.
A significant amount of the Company’s completion activity at Comanche in the second quarter 2018 was focused on
the Diamond H Ranch in the western portion of Area 5. During the second quarter, Sanchez Energy placed 19 gross wells
on-line at the Diamond H Ranch. While still early, the Lower Eagle Ford Diamond H Ranch wells are performing in-line with
expectations. All of the Diamond H Ranch wells used a high volume, high rate slickwater completion design and were placed
on-line with a conservative flow back strategy.
At Catarina, the Company brought eight E31 and E32 wells on-line in the South Central area of the asset during
the second quarter 2018. The wells are performing in-line with expectations, with average 30-day production rates of
approximately 1,200 Boe/d.
Additionally, the Company brought three North Central wells on-line late in the second quarter 2018 that are
performing in-line with expectations. To date, the Company has drilled and completed 19 North Central wells. With the
Company’s drilling success in North Central Catarina, Sanchez Energy has de-risked its entire drilling inventory on the western and
central portions of its Catarina asset.
As of June 30, 2018, the Company had 2,278 gross (918 net) producing wells with 73 gross wells in various stages
of completion, as detailed in the following table:

SANCHEZ ENERGY CORPORATION
Non-GAAP Reconciliation – Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is a non‑GAAP financial measure that is used as a supplemental financial measure by our management
and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and others, to assess our operating
performance as compared to that of other companies in our industry, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or
historical costs basis. It is also used to assess our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures. Our
Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flows provided by
(used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with
U.S. GAAP. Our Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies
may not calculate Adjusted EBITDAX in the same manner. The following table presents a reconciliation of our net loss to
Adjusted EBITDAX (in thousands).

Non-GAAP Reconciliation – Adjusted Earnings (Loss)
We present Adjusted Earnings (Loss) attributable to common stockholders (“Adjusted Earnings (Loss)”), a non-GAAP
financial measure, in addition to our reported net income (loss) in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This information is provided
because management believes exclusion of the impact of the items included in our definition of Adjusted Earnings (Loss) below will
help investors compare results between periods, identify operating trends that could otherwise be masked by these items and
highlight the impact that commodity price volatility has on our results. Adjusted Earnings (Loss) is not intended to
represent cash flows for the period, nor is it presented as a substitute for net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flows
provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with
U.S. GAAP. Our Adjusted Earnings (Loss) may not be comparable to similarly title measures of another company because all
companies may not calculate Adjusted Earnings (Loss) in the same manner. The following table presents a reconciliation of our

Non-GAAP Reconciliation – Adjusted Revenues
We present Adjusted Revenues, a non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to our reported Revenues in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. The Company defines Adjusted Revenues as follows: total revenues plus cash settled derivatives. The Company
believes Adjusted Revenues provides investors with helpful information with respect to the performance of the Company's operations
and management uses Adjusted Revenues to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.
Our Adjusted Revenues may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not
calculate Adjusted Revenues in the same manner. The following table presents a reconciliation of our total revenues to
Adjusted Revenues (in thousands).
